David Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 Hey everyone, We had a great time in Indianapolis. The Indy guild is a great, hard working bunch of folks. The hotel staff was terrific. I took two seats to the show. The Tiger Eagle/Phoenix and my latest Dragon seat. I've copywrited the artwork so I won't have to look at someone absolutely murder the art ..... trying to copy it. Very discouraging when you to have it swiped and reproduced on someone else's bike seat and poorly done at that. Enough of that stuff. This year I decided to continue the series of dragon seats with dragon/koi II. My son and I took a first in the joint venture class. Unfortunately this will probably be our last joint venture, as my son has moved to Cleveland. It was really a great show. But most of all meeting a lot of new folks and renewing old friendships was great. Hope you all like the seat. Best to you all....I'll answer any questions. Dave Quote

Members JoelR Posted September 29, 2009 Members Report Posted September 29, 2009 My bike is not worthy of a seat like that.
